Can you try using Logstash to transform your data? Take a look at the `mutate` plugin filter, specifically configured with `add_field`: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/plugins-filters-mutate.html#plugins-filters-mutate-add\_field](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/plugins-filters-mutate.html#plugins-filters-mutate-add_field).

You'll want to end up with something like this:

```auto
filter {
  mutate {
    rename => {
      'latitude' => '[geo][lat]'
      'longitude' => '[geo][lon]'
    }
  }
}

```

or:

```auto
filter {
  mutate {
    rename => {
      'latitude' => '[geo][0]'
      'longitude' => '[geo][1]'
    }
  }
}

```

For some more context, what we're trying to do is wrangle some of your data to create a new field which conforms to the `geo_point` datatype ([https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/geo-point.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/geo-point.html)).
